Modules Environment

A module is a file used to set up the Paths in linux to allow the use of some software. The modules environment is a third party piece of software.

Adding or Removing a Module

module list #List the currently loaded modules

module avail #List the available modules of loading

module load <module name 1> <module name 2>

As an example this would load the gcc, openmpi and openblas modules:

module add shared
module add gcc
module add openmpi/gcc
module add openblas/nehalem
mpicc -o myapp myapp.c
